Dark forests, countless bushes.

And the towering ancient trees, with their dense leaves, are like giant umbrellas, blocking the sun.

Only a few sporadic rays of sunlight hit the damp ground. Standing in the middle of the forest, the smell of trees and dead leaves rotting everywhere lingers.

Helan Jiu led the way in front, and Yu Xi followed closely behind.

Suddenly, Helan Jiu said, "Young Master Yuxi......"

"Call me by name, don't call young master." Yu Xi felt very awkward every time she heard her call the young master. From her mouth, I couldn't hear much respect, and the young master still had a bit of teasing.

Helan Jiu glanced at him obliquely, "Okay, I'll call you Yuxi." ”

Yu Xi was choked again, and after a while, he whispered, "It's not good to call your name directly." I'm older than you...... It's not an exaggeration to call my brother. ”

Helan Jiu's little head turned his head back, and he chuckled, "Do you think you look like a brother?" ”

Yu Xi bowed his head with a weak heart.

"Okay, since it's not called by name, let's call it Xiaoxi." Helan Jiu waved his little white hand.

Yuxi is slightly embarrassed, creek? It sounds weird, "Can I change it?" This one is reminiscent of the creek outside a small bamboo house. ”

"That's called Big Creek." Sounds a bit like big......

Sure enough, Yu Xi was disgusted again, "Change it again." ”

"Ah Xi."

"......" Yuxi beef is full of noodles and nods improvisedly.

Helan Jiu ignored him and paid attention to his surroundings.

If she doesn't call her brother, it's not that she wants to find fault on purpose, it's that under normal circumstances, she can't shout.

In her eyes, Yu Xi is much more naïve than her.

When it is not necessary, it is very hypocritical to pretend to be tender.

Without warning, Helan Jiu suddenly stopped, turned around and looked back at the road the two had walked in confusion.

Yu Xi stopped, very puzzled.

Just listening, she asked with a calm face: "Ah Xi, do you have any powerful killer features?" ”

"Nope. Does self-detonation count? ”

"......" Helan Jiu silently put aside his little head, the young man who was sick in the second middle school was saved by no medicine.

Self-explosion is tantamount to suicide, can it be considered a killer feature?

Yu Xi also knew that he had replied with a stupid remark, and his face was hot again. Why is she obviously just a rookie who has just entered the cultivation realm, but he feels that he is inferior to her everywhere? Suddenly, he remembered the question he had been minding in his heart, "Xiao Jiu, has Gongzi Dongguo accepted you as an apprentice?" ”

"Where did you hear that?"

"You studied alchemy, and the news of blowing up sixty Dan furnaces has already spread all over the world." Yu Xi suddenly blocked her way, and her expression was very complicated.

Helan Jiu found that he cared very much, so he put out his joking thoughts and said truthfully: "Confiscate." ”

"Confiscation? So what kind of alchemy do you study? ”

"Self-taught, can't you?" Helan Jiu raised his head and said patiently: "Dongguo Gongzi usually looks at people who refuse people, but in fact, he is a very soft-hearted person and is very easy to get along with. If you encounter any problems, just ask him. ”

Is that so?

The complexity on Yu Xi's face was gone.

As long as he confiscated it as an apprentice, he didn't have to think about it.

Helan Jiu asked incomprehensibly: "Do you mind if Gongzi Dongguo accepts me as an apprentice?" ”

Yu Xi nodded frankly, "Mind me." I know it's shameful to have that thought, but I can't help it. ”

"You want to worship him as a teacher, but he refuses?" Helan Jiu tried to ask.

Only for this reason, will I mind.

Sure enough, Yu Xi nodded honestly again.
